Another season in the books and this time it is the Penguins that raise the Stanley Cup. This one is their fourth in franchise history and the second in the last decade. In honour of their Cup win, here is a Stanley Cup!
90-91 Pro Set Stanley Cup Hologram NNO /5000
Holy crap, that scanned like.....crap. Well, I am going to say this card isn't mint and really isn't close. But it does look far better than that in person. With that being said, I find the
75th Anniversary Hologram to be a much much better looking card. In person I would say the card is pretty decent and more importantly another one crossed off my bucket list of white whales. Sadly the trade I announced fell through and I didn't let that deter me and I was able to sell the box I was going to trade and buy this card AND others so not bad if you ask me.
Here is the back side of the card. It is hand numbered and you can read a little history on Lord Stanley's Cup.
Thanks for checking in and I hope to share a few fun mail days I received in the past while! Congrats Pens fans, hope it is was a great ride!
Wow great card Dave, condition be damned. Someday I hope to add one of these to my own collection!
ReplyDeleteCool card! I have to get one of those some day.
ReplyDeleteThanks guys! There are 5000 apparently, hopefully one with each of your names on them!
ReplyDeleteGreat card. I've wanted this card and the Lombardi Trophy hologram since back in the early 90's.
ReplyDeleteI hope you land one some day! Is the Lombardi hologram equally coveted by collectors? I have seen them around from time to time but no idea if people go as nuts or even more so for it.
DeleteVery hard card to find. At the expo I saw one for sale that was graded PSA 8!

ReplyDeleteWow, that would have been a beautiful sight! Just curious, how much was the seller asking for it?
